 Lauki Kheer - Very easy & very delicious !
Very finely grated lauki - 2 cups
Milk - 4 cups
Sugar - ¾ cup
Cardamom powder - ½ tsp
Ghee - 1 tbsp
Chopped nuts - to garnish
Grate lauki & set aside for 15 mts.
Squeeze well to remove the water.
Heat ghee & fry the lauki for a few mts.
Boil milk & keep ready
Add the boiled milk & cook, stirring regularly till it becomes thick to the desired consistency.
(Another alternative is, when the lauki becomes soft, mix 1 tbsp vanilla custard powder with 2 tbsp cold milk, add & cook, stiiring well.
Cooking for a longer time can be avoided.)
Simmer, add sugar & stir on low fire till it dissolves completely.
Add cardamom powder & remove.
Garnish & chill.
